problem #1

Mar 192014

Sorento 4-cyl

  • 56,000 miles
On two different dates about a week apart we had two TPMS failures. On the first one the TPMS tire pressure monitor system sensor located in the passenger rear wheel cracked and was losing air. TPMS sensor was replaced. Around a week later while my wife was traveling at highway speed the passenger side front TPMS sensor retaining cap fell off due to corroded threads and the sensor fell into the tire causing a high speed deflation. Dealer has not been notified of the second failure as we have an appointment in the next couple weeks. This vehicle has been dealer serviced since new and has all required service done.
